    The ACCUPLACER is a placement test for technical colleges.

    The ACCUPLACER is used to assess your current skill level and readiness for the types of schoolwork you’ll be required to do at the technical school — specifically, reading, writing, and math. The ACCUPLACER makes it easier for advisors and counselors to determine whether a student is ready to take a college-level class such as English 101 and Math 101, or if they need additional support in developmental courses such as Math 093 or Engish 099 before enrolling in credit-bearing courses.

    • The ACCUPLACER is a computerized self-paced, untimed test.
    • The test is delivered in a multiple choice format.
    • Most students complete the test within 1.5 to 2 hours.
    • The test is adaptive; the ACCUPLACER determines which questions will be given next based upon previous answers.
